• CapEx penalty of stand-alone switches
• OpEx penalty of extra space/power

Use Case: Multi-Layer Optimization and Provisioning
IP
MPLS
Converged OTN/DWDM
Service Provider A Use Case #1•End to end service provisioning•Within a single service provider•“Vertically” through multiple network technologies, and multiple vendors
•SDN advantages vs Distributed:• Controller can have full topological
visibility across all layers• Opportunity for superior Planning and
Traffic Engineering

Service Provider A Use Case #2• End to end service provisioning• Between service providers• Can be “horizontal only”• Could be “vertical” also
• SDN Advantages vs Distributed:• Internal detailed topology can
be hidden between domains• Can combine with vertical
provisioning within domain

Coherent super-channels are the key to scalability and spectral efficiency• Photonic Integrated Circuits are the ideal approach
Service mix and DWDM line rate highly mis-matched• Converged OTN switching is essential to maintain network efficiency
Modern control planes, require specific properties of the underlying data plane• True for distributed GMPLS and centralized SDN• Requirements are: Service Ready Capacity & Deterministic Switching
